Answer:

Step by Step Solution
To convert 16.66 percent to a fraction follow these steps:
Step 1: Write down the percent divided by 100 like this:
16.66% = 16.66/100
Step 2: Multiply both top and bottom by 10 for every number after the decimal point:
As we have 2 digits after the decimal point, we multiply both numerator and denominator by 100, or, simply shift 2 decimal places to the right. So,
16.66/100 = (16.66 x 100)/(100 x 100) = 1666/10000.
Step 3: Simplify (or reduce) the above fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor) between them. In this case, GCD(1666,10000) = 2. So,
(1666÷2)/(10000÷2) = 833/5000 when reduced to the simplest form.
